"A moment of silence for the fact that someone had to be raped and killed on the streets for India to realize that we are a misogynistic nation. It didn't start on the bus that day, it started the moment when we decided that men are more important than women, it started when we ignored that guy who groped us on the bus, it started when grandma said "he is a boy so obviously he deserves better", it started when mommy brought that gold chain for our wedding, it started when we decided that sexism is an accepted part of life!"- Aarcha Mahendran@Facebook.com
